There was never a scientific consensus of an imminent cooling period or ice age. The majority of scientific research even in the 1970s predicted global warming caused by industrial/agricultural carbon dioxide and population growth. Many of the sources that considered the evidence for the end of an interglacial period also acknowledged the role that carbon dioxide emissions would play in generating global warming that would run counter to any cooling in the glacial/interglacial long-term cycles.
